    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the hon. Member retired from the armed forces many years ago. He cannot remember how things are done. There have been a lot of complaints with regard to employment in Public Service. There is a lot of nepotism and favouritism and this has been practised even by Cabinet Members who are recruiting people in their Ministries. Lack of transparency in recruitment of senior public officers is largely responsible for the inequalities we have seen in this country. In his answer the Minister said that over 26,000 people have been recruited but that he cannot give the figure per constituency because they recruit on district basis. Could he then help the House by tabling the list, by district, of the people who have been recruited for those five years because it is important that this Government demonstrates that it is fair and transparent in terms of this recruitment.
